TL;DR Summary

The family of Banko Brown, a transgender Black man who was shot and killed by a private security guard outside a Walgreens store in San Francisco last month, has filed a wrongful death lawsuit against Walgreens, the security guard, and the guard's employer. The attorney for the family is seeking at least $25 million in damages. The lawsuit comes after California's attorney general announced he would review the decision to not charge the guard. Brown's death has sparked widespread anger across the city and left the San Francisco district attorney at odds with the San Francisco Board of Supervisors.
